Week 9: HDR

I would have to say there wasn't a whole lot of chose of color in Bannack so when I saw the truck with the color orange, I took the opportunity to capture it. And this is what came out. I used the ultra contrast in the HDR program and it made the color really stand out against the blue sky. This a program I will have to play with in the future.

Week 9: Bannack Best

What a fun trip to Bannack, MT. One would probably ask themselves what in the world would you take a picture of in a ghost town but there was so much. It is hard to capture all the unique things that are there but I attempted. I learned a lot of new techniques and it was nice to have a whole day set aside to just learn and to experience with different settings and what not. It was memorable day especially with a van breaking down :).

Week 8: Scanography Edit

Mirage: So I had this random photography magazine so I ripped out pictures of it and merged together to create a mirage in a desert.

Week 8: Scannography

Random from a Backpack; March 2, 2010; Rexburg, ID; Scanner

I honestly had no idea what to scan so I just looked in my backpack see what I could find and this is what I came up with. Nothing special.

Week 7: Borderes

The Color Green: February 23, 2010; Rexburg, ID; 70/10; f/2.7; DSC Sony H7
Green Todd: February 23, 2010; Rexburg, ID; 40/10; f/2.8; DSC Sony H7

On the first picture I did Burned Border but it is not as noticeable since it is a dark picture. Then on the Todd picture I did the flexible vignette. I tried it with a matching color border but didn't like it so much so I just put a white border and did a little feathering and lowered the opacity and I like this border then the other one.

Week 7: Night and Light

Outline; February 23, 2010; Rexburg, ID; 250/10; f/ 2.7/DSC -H7
Face: February 23, 2010; Rexburg, ID; 7/10; f/2.7; DSC-H7

My roommate's brother volunteer to help me out and we had a blast doing this assignment. At first it was difficult to get the right setting and to know how to set the settings and what not but eventually after a lot of practice shots were able to some neat shots. I wish on the first shot I was able to get the whole outline but for some reason it wouldn't capture by the legs. But this was a project that was fun doing and I would do it again.

Week 6: Panoramics

I was trying to think of something long and first thing that came to mind was a train. This was taken in here Rexburg right off of main street. The middle and the last picture look like they are the same but I promise they're not. I just did a lot of overlapping and I didn't realize it. It was really cloudy today so I just adjusted the brightness and the contrast on it.
